Study Notes
Separating Mixtures
- Magnetic attraction separates iron objects from other materials.
- Evaporation separates a dissolved solid from a liquid.
- Filtration separates a solid from a liquid by using a filter.
- Distillation separates liquids by heating them, the liquid with the lowest boiling point turns into a gas, this gas is then cooled and condenses back into a liquid, but in a pure form.
Mixtures and Compounds
- Mixtures are made when two or more substances are in the same place, but their atoms are not bonded.
- Compounds are substances made of two or more elements that are chemically combined in a set ratio.
- A chemical formula represents the elements in a compound and the ratio of their atoms by using symbols and numbers.
- An atom is the basic particle of an element, and everything is made of atoms.
- Atoms form chemical bonds to create molecules.
- A molecule is a group of two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds.
